This brings the official tally of July Kannada film releases prior to Vikrant Rona to 10. Chase, which has Avinash Sringeri Divakar (Formerly Avinash Narasimharaju), Radhika Narayan and Sheethal Shetty, among others on the cast, will take on Aniissh Tejeshwar’s Benki at the box office. The film also comes two weeks after Sheethal’s directorial debut, Window Seat, which will be in theatres on July 1.
Taking to social media today, Vilok had written, “"Chase.. in the dark" begins in the darkness of cinema halls! Cinema is mainly made for and meant for big screen viewing experience and not meant for mobile screen or home viewing during the release month! So see you soon at your nearest theatres!

Produced by Manohar Suvarna, Pradeep Shetty and Prashanth Shetty for Simply Fun Media Network the suspense thriller was shot across Mangaluru, Bengaluru, Kochi and other cities.
Chase has been in production for a few years, which Vilok attributes to the meticulous planning that went into its making, in terms of how the film should look and feel, with regard to the locations, star cast, etc. The film has cinematography by Ananthraj Aras and music by Karthik Acharya. Chase has a run-time of about two hours and twenty minutes, which is just right for the suspense thriller genre.
